The Mountain Made Low A Whistle has Easy Reach Fingering.

Many Folks call this whistle “The Rover”

If you play your whistle oudoors, this is the model for you!

You can play The Mountain Made Low A in windy conditions and it will not miss a note. The Mountain Made Low A stays in tune in cold weather and is a nice sized whistle to take to a session, music festival, church, camping, hiking or playing around the fire at night.

I’ve played this whistle from Northern Maine to the Florida Keys and everywhere in between and it is a good performer for all types of music.The mouthpiece top cap is beveled to fit your upper lip and fully polished to a silky finish.

Whistle is fifteen inches long with Easy Reach finger holes to fit small hands (ladies medium glove size). Players with large hands will find the Easy Reach distances are comfortable and easy to play.

Easy Reach finger holes on the Mountain Made Low A are inline and are suitable for either left or right handed players. The hand finished finger holes make playing the instrument comfortable and finger holes seal easily.

The Mountain Made Low A is one piece for the most efficient air flow and has a reamed foot to increase volume. A highly polished glass like bore and a high density dark gray polymer plug in the mouthpiece complete the whistle. Tone body is double coated with Tuxedo Black and has dazzle silver striping.

Tuning is very precise and the whistle plays dry due to the extremely smooth and polished bore. The whistle will play in 50 degree temperature and up to 90 degrees in pitch. No tuning changes are necessary for cold or heat so a tuning slide is not needed. The polymer material holds heat at an R3 heat factor (once it is played for a few bars) and stays “hot” and in tune.

Many churches in Europe are unheated and this whistle is used because it does not go flat in the cold. Like my auto flute, this instrument is used because this material never needs tuning in the cold and will play in the wind.

The Mountain Made Low A lets you play in the Keys of A and D and B minor without having to learn any tricky cross fingering. This is a very handy whistle to add to your collection.

The Mountain Made Low A has a rich, full sound you will enjoy, with balanced high and low octaves. There is plenty of volume for any type of playing.

A color coded fingering chart and whistle tips and instructions sheet are included. A quality handmade cleaning rod is included to use for maintaining your new whistle.

The Mountain Made Low G lets you play in the Keys of G,C,& A minor without having to learn cross fingering. This is a dandy whistle to add to your whistle collection at an unheard of price for a Low G whistle with all these special features!

I have played the Low G from Canada to the Florida Keys over the years and people are always impressed with The Mountain Made Low G whistle.

I recommend the Mountain Made Low G as the whistle to play for folks moving from the Hi-D whistle to a Low whistle. Playing the Low G will improve your overall technique with fingering and proper tonguing of the whistle. The Key of G is a very popular music key and handy to have in your whistle collection.

The Low G mouthpiece has been redesigned and is buffed to a smooth finish that has a comfortable bevel on the top cap to fit your lip when playing.

The aircap is made of white polymer and slides completely off the whistle for easy cleaning. This whistle contains no wood or metal and has a bore that shines like glass.

The Low G now matches the Low F, Low Eb & Low D WhistleSmith whistles to make a Tuxedo Black four whistle set.

The Mountain Made Low G is 17.25″ long and has Easy Reach fingering from pointer finger on right hand to the ring finger of 2.5” overall. Finger holes are inline with no offset finger holes and the whistle fits right or left handed players.

Folks with large and extra large hands will find the whistle to be comfortable and uncrowded between fingers.

Whistle comes with a custom fingering chart & whistle tips, and a handmade cleaning rod that fits the bore of your whistle.

The Mountain Made Low G has a tuxedo black body with silver striping and a full color decal with the whistle key plainly marked. The decal helps prevent handling wear and keeps you whistle looking good!

Key Whistle Features

1. Test players asked for a whistle that felt more substantial in the hand like the other WhistleSmith whistles.

The Mountain Made Large Bore HI-D has a 3/4″ outside diameter to give a solid grip for your hands and is the same diameter as the C, Bb, A, Low G and Low F whistles.

2.Test Players asked for even easier finger pressure on the whistle. The amount of pressure to seal the finger holes is reduced. This is a large factor to folks with hand problems that make gripping a small diameter whistle uncomfortable.

3. Test players asked that the finger holes feel perfectly smooth, like the whistle had been played.

The finger holes are beveled using a new technique and give an easier and smoother air seal when playing the instrument. The fingering feels like the whistle has been broken in using your fingers.

4. Test Players asked for more bevel on the top cap. The mouthpiece has a longer top bevel on the air cap to fit your lip even better.

5. Test players asked for even more volume and carry to the sound for playing outdoors.

With a 5/8″ inside bore and a round fipple plug in the airway, the whistle plays with more volume, improved tone in the low octave, clearer tone in the top octave, and a dryer mouthpiece.

6. Players with large fingers asked for more finger hole separation.

The finger holes are positioned with additional space to reduce finger bumping and give folks with larger hands the room to play the Hi-D .

What is the difference between a Thumb Post and a Thumb Ring?

NOTE: Small Thumb Rings are no longer available. Large thumb rings are available and you can purchase below.

This is The WhistleSmith Thumb ring that snaps to the body of the whistle and rotates for most comfortable playing position.

Some folks would like a Thumb ring for both hands so I am listing them as an individual item.

Low whistles and flutes take a large ring and Hi whistles and flutes use a small ring. WhistleSmith Thumb rings are made to fit only WhistleSmith whistles and flutes. Pick Thumb ring size to fit your whistle and Add it to Your Cart. We will ship your Thumb ring with your whistle order.

I recently received a note from a music teacher who instructs both children and adults on playing the whistle. She was not familiar with the thumb ring and asked if I would explain how a thumb ring was constructed and how it works versus a thumb post.

I do not make a thumb post, however some makers include them with their whistles. A thumb post snaps onto your whistle and will keep your whistle from rolling and falling off a table. However, a thumb post has little value for holding your whistle. Thumb posts are generally injected molded and tend to break if snapped on and off the whistle frequently.

The WhistleSmith thumb ring is made from schedule 40 pipe and hand riveted together to make a very strong clip and ring combination. There are 20 steps involved in making a single thumb ring and each step is done by hand. WhistleSmith thumb rings are made to last, but can be easily repaired with common tools if necessary.

Here are some advantages to using a WhistleSmith thumb ring.

• The WhistleSmith thumb ring is a full circle ring for your thumb. The ring swivels on a clip which snaps onto your whistle to allow movement and angle adjustment to the ring for the most comfortable playing position.
• You have a solid grip on your whistle without having to practice fingering positions when using the thumb ring.
• The thumb ring prevents your whistle from rolling off the counter or table top if you lay it down.
• The thumb ring lets you hang your whistle on a cup hook or a wall pin when you are not playing. This provides a secure storage for your whistle and keeps it out of harms way.
• Playing with a thumb ring improves your technical skills by eliminating learning hand grips when playing with all the holes open on your whistle.
• You will not drop your whistle when you are playing because your lips anchor the end of your whistle and the thumb ring hold the body securely.
• Confidence is a large part of playing your whistle. You need to know your whistle is held securely and cannot be dropped by accident when playing in front of an audience!
• You can use a thumb ring on either hand. Place the thumb ring where you like it best. You can use a thumb ring on both hands at once if you wish!
